广东南瓜细菌性叶枯病及其病原鉴定

 在广东省雷州市发生一种南瓜(Cucurbita moschata)叶枯病,病株叶片边缘开始出现水渍状病斑,逐步发展成大病斑,后期病斑焦枯;在叶片上也可形成近圆形水渍状病斑,伴有黄色晕圈,后期病斑联合形成不规则大枯斑;叶柄和匍匐茎被侵染后呈水渍状腐烂。从病斑上分离到一种细菌,在KB培养基上,菌落为椭圆形,乳白色,半透明,边缘参差不齐,紫外灯照射下产生荧光反应。致病性测定结果表明,该病原细菌可侵染6个南瓜品种引起与田间症状相同的叶枯病。生理生化试验结果表明,该病原细菌与丁香假单胞丁香致病变种(Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae)的特性一致。应用假单胞菌属特异引物Ps-for/Ps-rev和丁香假单胞丁香致病变种组群特异性引物Group III-F/Group III-R,可从该病原细菌中扩增出预期大小分别为1 018 bp和750 bp的目的片段。应用丁香致病变种syrB基因特异性引物B1/B2,可从该病原菌中扩增出预期大小为750 bp的丁香霉素基因片段。基于16S rDNA与gyrB基因序列系统进化分析均表明,南瓜叶枯病菌株与已报道的P. syringae pv. syringae菌株HS191(CP006256)亲缘关系最近,二者聚类在一起形成一个小分支。人工接种条件下,该病原细菌还可侵染西葫芦、丝瓜、茄子、番茄、菜豆、扁豆等植物。这些结果表明,引起广东省南瓜叶枯病的病原为丁香假单胞丁香致病变种(Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae)。这是首次在中国发现丁香假单胞丁香致病变种引起南瓜叶枯病。     

Nanopore sequencing for the detection and identification of Xylella fastidiosa subspecies and sequence types from naturally infected plant material

Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) is a gram-negative bacterial plant pathogen that can infect over 500 plant species. While it is endemic in America, X. fastidiosa subsp. pauca was reported for the first time in Europe in 2013 on olive trees in southern Italy. The availability of fast, sensitive, and reliable diagnostic tools is indispensable for managing current and future outbreaks of Xf. In this paper, we use the OXford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) MinION platform for detecting and identifying Xf at species, subspecies, and sequence type (ST) level. Two workflows were developed: the first one provided a “shotgun” strategy, that is, exploring the possibility of detecting Xf within DNA extracted from plant samples. This allowed detection of Xf by direct DNA sequencing and identifying the subspecies only in samples with high bacterial levels. Nanopore amplicon sequencing was pursued as a second workflow. This consists of PCR amplification of a set of seven multilocus sequence typing (MLST) fragments, officially adopted for identifying Xf at type strain level, followed by Nanopore-sequencing of the amplicons and an ad hoc pipeline to generate MLST consensus calls. This combined approach, which takes only a few hours, allowed the detection and identification of Xf at ST level in plant material with low bacterial infection.     

香料烟细菌性斑点病病原鉴定

 2004~2005年在云南保山香料烟上发现一种由细菌侵染引起的新病害,称为香料烟细菌斑点病。该病主要危害叶片,初为黑褐色水浸状圆形或多角形小斑点,以后病斑扩大、连片,形成不规则的较大坏死斑。从病叶上分离到了28株细菌菌株,菌株接种于香料烟上,发病症状与田间自然症状一致,并从回接病株上重新分离得到此病病原细菌。经过革兰氏染色反应、菌体形态、培养性状、LOPAT试验、生理生化特性分析和16S-23S rDNA序列分析,以及病原菌寄主范围测定,确定该病原菌为丁香假单胞菌烟草致病变种[Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci(Wolfet al.)Young et al.]。

过表达嗜热毛壳菌Cu/Zn-SOD基因提高转基因水稻对3种病害的抗性

超氧化物歧化酶(Superoxide dismutase,SOD,EC1.15.1.1)是生物体中清除氧自由基、保护细胞免受氧化损害的关键保护酶之一,SOD活性的提高可以增加植物对各种不良环境的适应和耐受能力。本研究将一个源自嗜热毛壳菌(Chaetomium thermophilum,Ct)的Cu/Zn-SOD基因Ct SOD通过农杆菌介导的遗传转化方法转入水稻,转基因植株的SOD活性均得到显著提高。对转基因植株分别接种水稻白叶枯病、细菌性条斑病以及纹枯病的病原,发现过量表达Ct SOD能够显著提高转基因植株对3种病害的抗性。这种对多种病害具有抗性的单个基因在植物抗病育种中具有重要应用价值。     

Bacteria from four phylogroups of the Pseudomonas syringae complex can cause bacterial canker of apricot

Pseudomonas syringae is described as a species complex, containing P. syringae-related species classified into 13 phylogroups and 23 clades. Pseudomonas syringae is one of the main pathogens of fruit trees, affecting nut trees, hazelnut and kiwi, pome and stone fruits. Bacterial canker of apricots is an important disease in regions of production with cold winters and conducive soils. This work characterizes the bacteria able to induce canker in apricots isolated in different French orchards. Bacteria from four phylogroups were able to induce canker. The pathogenicity to apricot was not linked to the pathogenicity to the three herbaceous species and cherry fruits tested, and was not always related to hypersensitive reaction on tobacco and ice nucleation activity. Bacteria pathogenic to apricot belong to phylogroups 01, 02, 03 and 07. The bacteria of phylogroups 01a and 07a (Pseudomonas viridiflava) characterized in this work have not previously been described as pathogenic to apricot.     

猕猴桃溃疡病菌的分子检测技术研究

 猕猴桃溃疡病是猕猴桃生产上的主要病害,为建立该病的快速诊断技术,本实验通过RAPD分析获得一条1 300 bp左右的致病菌的特异片段,对该片段进行克隆测序,在测序的基础上设计并合成一对特异引物F7/R7,优化特异引物扩增条件,并验证引物的特异性和灵敏性。利用该特异引物对包括猕猴桃溃疡病菌在内的14个菌株基因组DNA进行PCR扩增表明,只有猕猴桃溃疡病菌能扩增出1条约为950 bp的特异条带,其他菌株及对照均未扩增出特异条带。对采自果园的染病枝干组织和接种致病菌的枝干组织的检测表明,该特异引物能特异性地检测到猕猴桃溃疡病菌的存在,其在组织中的检测灵敏度为100 fg/μL。因此,利用设计合成的特异引物F7/R7,参考优化的体系和程序,结合简单的试剂盒法提取猕猴桃溃疡病菌或植物组织DNA,可以在短时间内完成对该病原菌的分子检测。

Environmentally friendly treatment alternatives to Bordeaux mixture for controlling bacterial apical necrosis (BAN) of mango

Bacterial apical necrosis (BAN), caused by the bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae (Pss), is currently the most limiting disease affecting the mango crop in the Mediterranean area. The copper‐based compound Bordeaux mixture (BM) is considered to be the conventional treatment against BAN, but it does not act as a bactericide. Alternative experimental treatments to BM that are compatible with organic farming were tested for their ability to control BAN disease. Field trials were conducted over six seasons in different mango orchards with natural infestation of Pss. The experimental treatments included applications of Silicon gel (a commercial formulation of aqueous potassium silicate), dicalcium phosphate, Kaolinite, and Ulmasud B^® (bentonite, powder); BM was applied as the conventional treatment. During the first two seasons (small‐scale trial, 2002–2004), all these experimental compounds were applied in order to select those treatments providing the greatest reduction of BAN symptoms. In the next three seasons (2005–2008), a semi‐commercial scale trial was carried out with the best‐performing treatments, resulting in the selection of Silicon gel. Finally, Silicon gel was tested in a commercial scale trial during the last season (2008–2009). Trees treated with Silicon gel showed significantly fewer necrotic buds and leaves, reaching disease levels very similar to those using the conventional treatment with BM. However, minor differences in P. syringae‐like population levels were observed, as has been described in previous studies. The possible mode of action of the Silicon gel is discussed. Currently, the Silicon gel compound is undergoing the registration process for its commercial use in mango management in Spain.     

Adaptation of the New Zealand Psa risk model for forecasting kiwifruit bacterial canker in Korea

Bacterial canker of kiwifruit, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa), is a severe threat to kiwifruit production in Korea. An existing infection risk model from New Zealand was adopted to respond to this epidemic. Disease incidence (proportion of diseased leaves on each vine) and weather (hourly temperature, rainfall and relative humidity) data required to develop the model were collected and analysed in the study. Disease incidence data were used to modify and validate the existing model. Because the Psa risk model was originally developed in a region where the characteristic climatic conditions are completely different from those in Korea, the temperature and rainfall functions of the existing model were modified. Analyses using statistical correlation and prediction–realization tables revealed that the modified model is valid with high agreement (a correlation coefficient of 0.85 and an accuracy of 85.7%, respectively) between the observed disease incidence and simulated disease risk from the model. The model was also found to be more highly sensitive to the presence or absence of rainfall than any other weather variable inputs. Uncertainty in simulated disease risk was measured based on the level of uncertainty in temperature input from weather forecasts. Overall, these results indicate that the modified Psa risk model can be used to provide practical and applicable information for timely disease control to the kiwifruit growers in Korea.     

水稻抗病基因Xa21转入3个粳稻品种的抗性初步分析

 通过农杆菌介导转化,将已克隆的水稻白叶枯病抗性基因Xa21转入我国辽宁省3个粳稻品种:沈农606、辽粳454、辽粳294,共获得独立转基因系205个。通过PCR、GUS染色和Southern blot分析,证明Xa21基因已经整合到3个粳稻栽培品种的基因组中。通过温室接种菲律宾白叶枯病小种6的代表菌系PXO99,T₀代转基因水稻除了3-34表现部分抗性外,其它的转基因材料均表现高度抗病,表明Xa21转基因水稻已经获得抗性;温室接种T₁和T₂代试验表明,单拷贝整合的转化体呈现3:1分离,同时单拷贝3-34材料也表现部分抗性和感病3:1分离,证明已整合的Xa21基因能稳定遗传;同时对3-34部分抗性机制进行了分子生物学检测,证明GUS基因全部丢失、Xa21基因部分丢失并导致部分抗性。获得部分抗性材料,对于深入研究Xa21基因的功能区和研究抗病分子机制具有重要的意义。     

Impact of bacterial spot outbreaks on the phytosanitary quality of tomato and pepper seeds

The impact of disease outbreaks on the phytosanitary quality of seeds was investigated for two pathosystems: tomato–Xanthomonas vesicatoria and pepper–Xanthomonas euvesicatoria. This study, which was performed in Italy and Serbia, aimed to evaluate the season‐to‐season transmission of phytopathogenic regulated bacteria associated with phytosanitary risks posed by seeds produced in areas where bacterial infections are possible. For each pathosystem, field plots were experimentally inoculated to simulate an initial infection rate of 1%, 5% and 15%. The area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC) was calculated for each field plot, the seeds produced were analysed to determine the contamination level and rate, and the plant‐to‐seed transmission was evaluated by a seedling grow‐out (SGO) assay. To investigate transmission under field conditions, a second‐year experiment was performed, wherein seeds collected from the first year were used to establish new field plots. During the first growing season, AUDPC values were positively correlated with the percentages of initial infection for each pathosystem. Seed contamination levels in pepper ranged from 34 to 100 CFU g^?1, and the contamination rate ranged from 1.50% up to 3.17% for X. euvesicatoria, whereas processing and fresh market tomato seeds produced both in Italy and Serbia were not infected by X. vesicatoria. During SGO assays and the second cropping year, no symptoms were observed in either tomato or pepper plants. Therefore, the calculated pepper seed contamination rate for X. euvesicatoria appeared to be less than the threshold necessary to initiate a disease outbreak. Finally, all seeds obtained during the second cropping year were uninfected.

Pseudomonas syringae pv. solidagae pv. nov., the Causal Agent of Bacterial Leaf Spot of Tall Goldenrod Solidago altissima L.

A new bacterial disease of tall goldenrod (Solidago altissima L., “Seitaka-awadachiso” in Japanese), one of the most serious weeds in non-agricultural land, was discovered in Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan. Characterized by angular or round, dark brown necrotic spots on leaves, this disease resulted in defoliation and terminal dieback of the plants in severe cases. The disease was named “bacterial leaf spot”. The causal bacterium was identified as Pseudomonas syringae based on its bacteriological properties including those determined by LOPAT tests. The present bacterium was pathogenic to tall goldenrod alone but not to many other tested plants including weeds, flowers, trees and crops. In addition, P. syringae pv. syringae and other pathovars did not show any pathogenicity to tall goldenrod. Because no pathovars of P. syringae pathogenic to tall goldenrod have been reported, the present bacterium was concluded to be a new pathovar of P. syringae. We propose the name P. syringae pv. solidagae pv. nov. , and strain Sei 1 (MAFF 810063) is designated as the pathotype strain and has been deposited in the MAFF collection with two reference strains (MAFF 810064 and MAFF81066).
